“Recollections May Vary,” brilliantly coined by the late Queen Elizabeth II, in reference to disclosures by royal family members, is such a perfect descriptive phrase, I have it emblazoned on a t-shirt.
Similar to varied accounts of people witnessing the same accident scene, each member of a family unit stores memories of past events, influenced by perceptions, age, personality, sensory interpretation, proximity to the event, emotional makeup, cognitive ability and processing,
The neurological scientific research into memory is fascinating, covering individual intake of stimuli, memory storage and retrieval, along with many other variables. I share my memories and interpretations of interactions from my fount of personal memories, education, observations and life experiences.
Believing it is important to examine, understand, grieve, move forward and mend relationships which can be healthy, I next explore forgiveness in all its intricacies.
